HIV Monitoring Program

The HIV Monitoring Program tracks the health of individuals living with HIV to ensure effective treatment. It involves regular laboratory tests, like measuring viral load (the amount of virus in the blood) and CD4 count (a measure of immune system strength). These tests help healthcare providers assess how well the treatment is working and whether adjustments are needed. The goal is to suppress the virus, maintain immune health, and prevent complications or transmission. The program also collects data to improve HIV care strategies and outcomes at the community and population levels.
